Abstract
We report the Rietveld refinement of the structures of inert gas (Ne)- intercalated C-60 using time-of-flight neutron powder diffraction data . Various pressures to similar to 2.5 kbar at room temperature were em ployed. We find that only the octahedral interstices are occupied by t he Ne intercalate. The pressure dependence of the Ne occupancies in th e octahedral site has been determined. The cubic lattice parameter inc reases linearly with the amount of intercalated Ne.
